More than 200 wealthy crypto bros gathered for a private event at President Donald Trump’s golf club just outside Washington, DC, on Thursday night — dining on filet mignon and halibut while the president stood at a podium recounting his 2024 victory.

周四晚上，有200多个富裕的加密兄弟兄弟在华盛顿特区郊外的唐纳德·特朗普总统的高尔夫俱乐部举行了一场私人活动 - 在菲力牛排和大比目鱼上用餐时，总统站在讲台上讲述了他的2024年胜利。

The black-tie dinner was a special reward for the top 220 holders of the president’s personal $TRUMP meme coin, with those in the room having contributed millions in investment in his crypto token. The 25 biggest investors had an even more exclusive privilege — access to a small VIP reception with the president.

黑领带的晚宴是总统个人$特朗普犯罪硬币的前220名持有人的特别奖励，房间里的那些在他的加密代币中贡献了数百万美元的投资。 25个最大的投资者拥有更具独家特权 - 与总统获得小型VIP接待。

Guests were required to complete a background check to attend the evening’s festivities, according to a copy of the invitation seen by CNN. The invite told them not to arrive before 5:30 p.m., with the dinner starting at 7 p.m.

根据CNN邀请的副本，要求客人完成背景调查参加当晚的庆祝活动。邀请告诉他们不要在下午5:30之前到达，晚餐从晚上7点开始

Many of the attendees watched as Marine One touched down on his golf course at his Sterling, Virginia club — then were personally greeted by the president.

许多与会者看着海军陆战队在他的斯特林弗吉尼亚俱乐部（Virginia Club）上降落他的高尔夫球场 - 然后是总统亲自向总统致意的。

Donning a blue suit and his famous red tie, he told the cheering crowd: “Hello, what a nice place. Did you get to see the helicopter?” according to a video shared by attendees on social media. “How do you like this location?”

穿着蓝色的西装和他著名的红色领带，他告诉欢呼的人群：“你好，真是个好地方。你看到了直升机吗？”根据与会者在社交媒体上分享的视频。 “您喜欢这个位置吗？”

The dinner, which was billed by the White House as an event Trump was attending in his personal capacity, flurried a great deal of concern back in Washington, with critics’ chief concern being that it presented foreigners with the opportunity to purchase access to the president. The Constitution bans a president from receiving foreign gifts without Congressional consent.

晚宴是由白宫（White House）称为特朗普（Trump）以个人身份参加的事件，在华盛顿（Washington）引起了很多关注，批评者的主要关注点是，它使外国人有机会购买与总统的机会。宪法禁止一名总统未经国会同意而获得外国礼物。

Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut characterized the dinner as an “unprecedented pay-to-play scheme to provide access to the presidency to the highest bidder.” Sen. Chris Murphy, also a Connecticut Democrat, called it a “scam” and “the most brazenly corrupt thing a President has ever done.” Even Republican crypto advocate Sen. Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming said the event gives her “pause.”

康涅狄格州的民主党参议员理查德·布卢门塔尔（Richard Blumenthal）将晚餐描述为“前所未有的付费计划，以提供总统职位的最高出价者的机会”。参议员克里斯·墨菲（Chris Murphy）也是康涅狄格州民主党人，称其为“骗局”和“总统所做的最艰难的事情”。甚至共和党的加密宣言，怀俄明州的辛西娅·卢米斯（Cynthia Lummis）也表示，这次活动给了她“停止”。

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt pushed heavily back on those claims during a press briefing hours before the dinner, telling reporters it was “absurd for anyone to insinuate that this president is profiting off of the presidency.”

白宫新闻秘书卡罗琳·莱维特（Karoline Leavitt）在晚餐前的一份新闻发布会上重新推迟了这些主张，告诉记者，“任何人都暗示这位总统正在从总统任职中获利是荒谬的。”

与会者

Justin Sun, a Chinese-born crypto mogul who, until recently, was facing civil fraud charges in the United States, was not only among those in attendance — but was lauded as the top holder of Trump’s meme coin.

贾斯汀·孙（Justin Sun）是中国出生的加密大亨，直到最近，他还是面临着美国的民事欺诈指控，不仅是出席会议的人，而且还是被称为特朗普的模因硬币的最高持有人。

His last name sat atop a poster displayed at the dinner naming the “Top 220 $TRUMP dinner winners,” with an investment of $1,319,904.266 in “time weighted $TRUMP holdings,” according to a video posted by Sun to Instagram.

根据Sun在Instagram上发布的视频，他的姓氏坐在晚宴上展示的一张海报上，上面显示了“ Top 220美元的特朗普晚餐获奖者”，投资1,319,904.266美元的“ Time time frove $ trump Holdings”的投资。

Sun also posted a video declaring he was awarded a “Trump Golden Tourbillon” watch.

Sun还发布了一段视频，宣布他被授予了“特朗普金色荒野”手表。

Christoph Heuermann, who declares himself the “Youngest German in all countries of the world” on his Instagram page, was also in attendance. He shared a series of photos from the event, including a snapshot of the poster where his name was listed among the top 220 holders of Trump’s crypto token.

克里斯托夫·休曼（Christoph Heuermann）在Instagram页面上宣布自己是“世界上所有国家中最年轻的德国人”，他也参加了会议。他分享了活动中的一系列照片，其中包括海报的快照，其中他的名字被列为特朗普的加密代币的前220名持有人。

“I got to see some very rich crypto billionaires,” Heuermann wrote in one such Instagram post. “But the majority of the crowd were young professionals from the crypto space hailing mostly from Europe. A small share of Chinese and a few Americans, but a great diversity of most European countries. People working mostly for crypto exchanges, funds, market makers or just trading themselves. Very nice networking.”

Heuermann在Instagram的一篇文章中写道：“我必须看到一些非常有钱的加密货币。” “但是，大多数人群都是来自欧洲的加密货币空间的年轻专业人士。中国人和几个美国人的一小部分，但大多数欧洲国家都有很多多样性。大多为加密交流，资金，市场营销商或只是交易自己的人工作。

He claimed Trump gave a 20-minute speech “and didn’t interact with the crowd other than enjoying being celebrated,” according to his post. “Even VIP token holders (I know some) couldn’t speak or even shake hands with the president. It was still very much worth it to experience the president live and watch his mightily secured arrival and departure.”

根据他的帖子，他声称特朗普发表了20分钟的演讲“除了享受庆祝活动之外，没有与人群互动。” “即使是VIP代币持有者（我知道有些人）也无法与总统说话，甚至无法与总统握手。体验总统的生活并观看他的强大安全的到来和离开仍然非常值得。”
